I really dislike this line of reasoning. There are always people better off and worse off than any particular one of us. Does that mean we are all wrong to feel any emotion? Of course not. The human experience is subjective.
- aaron-lebo 11y agoOf course it isn't wrong to feel emotion. I'm the same age as the OP, I'm also well-off, I also get disillusioned and unsatisfied. But a large part of that emotion is misplaced. You can change how you feel simply by changing your perspective. You can look at a situation like that and feel like you are doing unsatisfying work, or you can also realize the benefits that come from that and turn it into a positive. And based on what they are saying, there's a lot of good that can come out of it. Good that most people don't have any chance at. You've got to feel a little thankful or lucky to even have that opportunity.
